Children's & Family Dentistry Colmar PAWe Care About Kids!

Children often experience increased worries in new situations, which is why Dr. Park works hard to place your child at ease before starting any kind of procedure. He understands that the best dentistry is more than advanced techniques, it’s treatment done with care and compassion. Our goal is to make sure that no child who visits our office ever has a reason to fear the dentist.

Dr. Park encourages children of all ages to use proper dental hygiene at home, and he instructs them how maintain their good dental health. He likes to meet them for their first visit around the time they cut their first tooth and enjoys watching them grow year after year.

Kids Dentist Colmar PAA Lifetime of Good Dental Habits!

At Park Dental of Colmar, we share your goals for sustaining your child’s oral health. Helping them learn good routines from the beginning creates a lifetime foundation of strong dental habits.

From a young age, many factors contribute to your child’s teeth being very susceptible to cavities. Children don’t have the required coordination to brush properly on their own. Because of this, it is critical for parents to help in their child’s daily hygiene. This promotes both thorough cleaning and the development of proper dental habits. Poor cleaning means teeth are more at risk to develop decay when subjected to food and juice acids. Little kids often “graze” – eating frequently throughout the day. This results in a protracted exposure to food acids, which may result in more cavities. The good news is that recognizing inadequate dietary and hygiene habits, along with applying a fluoride varnish to the mineralizing teeth, can drastically reduce the odds of your child incurring a cavity.

Dental Sealants Dentist Colmar PAPreventing Child Tooth Decay – the Easy Way!

Dental sealants counterbalance a child’s botched efforts to brush properly. Even though they give it their best try, they’re still learning, and their hand-to-eye coordination isn’t completely developed. Besides, it’s possible even with careful brushing that the deep grooves in the back of their teeth may be missed. These hard-to-reach brushing areas even thwart adults. This allows for the formation of bacteria, acids, and plaque, which will later lead to decay. And once a tooth has decay, it is damaged permanently and will need a filling or a crown.

A dental sealant treatment works as follows:
  • The tooth (or teeth) is cleaned and sterilized.
  • A thin, white or clear plastic coating is painted on the surfaces of their teeth.
  • A curing light is aimed at the sealant to bond it into place.
In no time at all, without shots or drills, the entire process is done. It’s completely harmless! The application of dental sealants is one of the best things both children and adolescents can do to prevent damage and safeguard their natural teeth.
